I was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue over 41 years ago. I was one of the first ones diagnosed being sick since birth. I love to share my experience hoping to help others. Eating gluten free is actually a healthy diet. Although there is no cure, you can live a healthy life by strictly adhering to the gluten free diet. NO WHEAT, RYE, BARLEY or REGULAR OATS. Now you can purchase gluten free oats. I have listed my favorite foods, products and things I do to enjoy life without gluten.
USDA Dietary Guidelines 2010
FOOD ALLERGIES:
Other Food Allergies - Cooking and Reading Labels become your primary duty
Gluten Free Lifestyle - Nutrients you need everyday
Water Additive - Drink PH Balanced water
A Whole Body Health - Internal and External
Applesauce-Homemade - The apples determine the color of your applesauce. I like the summer variety that ripens in August and Macintosh Apples are good also.
CAKES, CANDIES & BROWNIES:
Flourless Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Glaze

Peanut Clusters - Microwave 1 to 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir, Add 1 tbs. butter and melt for 30 or 40 seconds. Stir until creamy and add peanuts. Mix until peanuts are covered with chocolate and drop by spoonful onto a plastic plate. Refrigerate until set.
Peanut Butter Cups
COOKIES:
Applesauce Cookies
Carob Puff Corn
Rice Krispie Treats that taste like Baby Ruth Bars
COSMETICS:
Gluten Free Cosmetics and Toiletries - Watch what you put on your skin; especially lips...I use paint lipstick that lasts 12 hours.
ZUCCHINI BREAD: (Banana Nut Bread & Muffins)
MUFFINS:
Banana Muffins
Blueberry Muffins (My own recipe)
Magic Muffins & Basic Muffin Mix (recipe is okay but I like the recipes listed above better-my own preference) I also found that if you use Lundberg's short brown grain rice it is not as gritty.
PIES:
Almond & Rice Flour Pie Crust
No Fail GF Pie Crust
PICKLES:
Homemade Sweet Pickles - Never Fail Recipe and they are the best!
Homemade Dill Pickles that stay crisp all year. I make dill pickles each summer and dump out the dill pickles that was made the year before. Buy a mix from the store and follow the directions. I have used both Mrs. Wages and Ball pickle mix and they work well. You pick your cucumbers small (about 2" to 3"), wash, put in clean jars, heat the mix, vinegar and water. Pour over the cucumbers, seal and water bath. They are really good.
PROTEIN SHAKES:
Apple Pie Shake - A delicious breakfast
Healthy Shakes Snacks- I freeze my extra bananas in 1-inch chunks. I freeze strawberries and cherries. I put 3 frozen banana pieces in a blender, add 6 to 8 pieces of frozen fruit and about 1 inch of milk, water or juice. Add 2 to 3 pumps of sugar free Torani Syrup. Blend until smooth.
Optimum Sports Performance - Athletes, Make sure NUTRITION is on YOUR Side
Peppermint Patty Shake - A delicious shake instead of Egg Nog
